Brislall.BllCkIey.

One of the most beautiful we'd
dings which ever took place in
this city was solemnized at the
Church of the Good Shepherd.
on Thursday morning. Mr..
Thos J. Brislan, clerk in the
post office, and Miss Lizzie Buck
ley, for several years past the
leading saleslady at Mr.. Sol.
Harris dry goods store, were the
high contracting parties, and were
united according to the rites of
the Catholic Church, by Rev.
Father L. Young, the nuptial
mass being celebrated for the first
time in this city, one hour and a
half being required to complete
the ceremonies. The church was
filled to overhowing with the
many friends of the popular young
couple, the entire concourse re-
naming patiently the whole time,
though many ladies and gentlemen
were compelled to stand in the
aisles.
St. Cecelia's mass was sung by
a select choir, composed Of Misses
Annie Crutcher, Alma Scofeld,
Jennie Morris and Clara Stafford.
and Messrs. A. Jud. Graham,
Walker Peters, James Newman
and Albert Heinl, many of the
solos being beautifully rendered.
AT II o'clock the bridal party
arrived and entered the church in
the following order:
Mr.. Mat. Fahy and Miss Nora
Brislan, Mr.. M. Hogarty and
Miss Suella Mahoney, Mr.. Harry
O'Donnell and Miss Maggie New
man, Mr.. Chas. Weitzel and Miss
Katie Murphy, Mr. Tom Newman
and Miss Hannah Haly, Mr.. Pat.
Newman and Miss Belle Lynch,
followed by the bride and groom.
On reaching the altar the attend
ants passed within the railing and
formed themselves in semi-circle,
the ladies on the left and gentlemen
on the right, with the bride and
groom in the centre, Immediately
in front of the officiating minister,
which positions they maintained
until the close Of the ceremony,
when they left the church in
a reverse order, and proceeded to
the home of the groom, where they
partook of refreshments, and the
happy young couple left on the
two o'clock train for trip to Gin
cinnati, followed by the best
wishes of a host Of friends.
The bride looked unusually
beautiful in an elegant cream COL
ored dress Of velvet and grosgrain
silk, with imported seed pearl
front, bridal vail and orange bios.
SONS, the costume being one Of
the handsomest ever seen in this
city. The bridesmaids were
attired in cream colored tricotine,
short white walls and natural
flowers, while the gentlemen wore
dress suits Of black cloth.
The bride received number of
very handsome presents.

forging election returns, and in the State to
overriding the will of the people and nullify-

every Democrat in the State who does not
approve of the ballot-box smashing, tally

Smith has served in that Office before with
efficiency and satisfaction. The Democratic
senatorial caucus nominated Webster Dixon
for principal secretary.

THE present intention is said to be to have
Green Smith, the claimant, call the Senate
to order this morning, and Auditor Rice
to act as clerk in the calling of the roll.
Section 4961 of the Revised Statutes says:
ernor, it shall be the duty Of the
Auditor of State to preside at the
organization of the Senate" Does Mr..
Rice propose to violate the plain letter of the
law in the interests of the gangs The Lieu
tenant-governor is absent. Mr.. Rice's dictum
cannot make the Jennings county yahoo Lieu

signalize his last days in office by fragrant
and willful violation of the law?

IF the Sentinel reflects or represents the
sentiments of the Democratic party, or any
considerable part of it, then the Democratic
party expected that the members of the Su-

should decide questions before them in the

members Of the Utah bar, who are also re-
spectively bishop and an apostle Of the
Mormon Church. The duty of this strong
lobby force is to look after the interests of

living in the Territory, for resistance to the
Vaccinations of the church.

INFAMOUS JOURNALISM.

The indianapolis Sentinel probably had
more readers yesterday than in any day of its
existence. 1t does not often happen that
paper achieves as much Infamous notoriety in
one day. It's outrageous, blasphemous and
brutal attack on the Supreme Court was the
town talk, and great many persons, Repub
licans and decent Democrats, who are not in
the habit Of reading the paper. had a curiosity
to see the most infamous newspaper article
ever published in the State When they
looked in the Sentinel they saw it. The first
sentence of its leading editorial on ''The Su-
preme Court" was its keynote It read
Damn their cowardly souls; the Supreme
Court of Indiana are afraid of their shadows"
Decent men of all shades of politics were
shocked when they read it or heard it repeated
from mouth to mouth. Nothing like it ever
appeared in an American newspaper before.
1t casts into the shade the worst utterances of
the Chicago Anarchist organ. The editor of
an Anarchist paper in Milwaukee was recently
fined and imprisoned for less offense 1t is
probable that in the entire history of journal
ism since the first issue of the first newspaper,
so vile an attack on court was never before
seen in print, unless, possibly, in some revo-
lutionary manifesto or anonymous circular.
Beginning with damn their cowardly souls,'
the Sentinel continues in the same vein, de-
for II
ardice. its "poltroonery, its "pusillanimity,"
calls the judges ''pettifogging hair-splitters'
and ''chattering OWLS" and notifies them that
mot one Of them need trouble himself to ask
the suffrages of the people again." This to
such lawyers and such men as Judge William
E. Niblack, Judge Allen collars, Judge Joseph
A. S. Mitchell Judge George V. Howk and
Judge Byron K. Elliott
The journal does not feel called upon to
defend the Supreme Court. The people and
the bar of Indiana know full we'll that the out
| rageous charges and insinuations made against
it by the Sentinel are undeserved. There is
not q lawyer in the State who does not know
that the decision of the court is good law, and
not an honest man anywhere who will not say.
politics or no politics, that it was righteous
decision. The court needs no defense. The
aspect of the case to which we call attention
is this: The insane rage of the Sentinel is
owing to the fact that the court refused to
| ignore the legal questions involved, and lend
itself to revolutionary scheme to nullify a
popular election and steal the office of Leu
tenant-governor The Green Smith scheme
means just this and nothing less. 1t is a
Democratic conspiracy to overthrow the will
| of the people, fairly expressed in legal cleo
ton, and to steal the second highest Office in
the State. Because the Supreme Court re-
fused to become party to the conspiracy in
| plain violation of the Constitution and law.
the Sentinel exclaims, Damn their cowardly
souls" This sentence is a revelation Of the
plans and purposes, the temper and spirit OF
the Democratic managers and of the attitude
of the Sentinel towards them. It is the same
